Welcome to the Pampered Goddess

Like the name? I’m Virginia, and although I love the name, I’m far from a pampered Goddess, lol. A bit about me, I’m 47 years old, been a practicing solitary wiccan since 1992, and live on an acre of land in Pahrump, NV with my husband and two cats.

I’ve done a lot of things in my life. Everything from managing condominium complexes to file clerk. Waitress to auditor. But currently I’m a self employed webmistress, and part-time crafter.

I started a business in 2005 called Old West Soap Company. I sold all natural soaps, some old west shaving soaps in a tin, shea body butters, and molded soaps. But after a few years, I felt limited by the product line, and limited by the name. It connentates to me products used in the old west.

So I started with coming out with a line of products called Goddess Divine. Body butters and shower gels, because you deserve to be pampered like the Goddess you are!

This past Christmas, at a large craft show I was really looking forward to doing well at, we bombed. I was ready to heave everything into the trash and just forget crafting. But since I had invested a lot of time and effort into it, I decided to meditate and perform some rituals on it to see what my path should be.

As I was mixing up some essential oils for my candle dressings for my ritual, it dawned on me that I had all the ingredients (other than some smaller sized bottles) to sell ritual oils to other wiccans. And a lot of my organic soaps and shower gels would be really good to use to wash before rituals, and just to pamper yourself with goodness.

Thus, the Pampered Goddess was born. Bought the domain, got the dba, then went to change my eBay ID, and someone already had it, darn it. So I decided that The Pampered Goddess would be the home of my blog, and The Pampered Goddess Magickal Shop would be the home of my online store. I also have an online eBay store at, you guessed it, at The Pampered Goddess Magickal Shop.

I feel enthused and energized into a new path. I get to take something I love, my craft, and blend it with all natural ingredients that I really believe in. It isn’t every day that you get to do that.

So I hope you enjoy my blog, and take the time to drop a comment or two while you visit.

Blessed Be!
